Cuz if it now has an A15, this is good to play genshin on the TV.

Does anyone here have any idea when the 2022 4k Apple TV will be available? Their website still lists it as being unavailable.

Yeah idk what the deal is. I was so ready to buy it but it remains elusive. I kinda lost the interest after a while.

No need to even compare Apple TV to smart tv. It is an insult to apple. One is buttery smooth and the other is slow like turtle

Return the ATV and order a new model 2022 set for same price $239 @ Apple store online. Better processor, 128GB and other benefits that you may/may not need.
Do not open the set bought at Courts and try a return for another product of your household usage.

i think it's okay. the new one also will not be 239 if i'm getting the wired setup. only need it for basic use.

Wi-Fi 64GB version is $199.
Ethernet/Wi-Fi 128GB is $239.
if you already have the 2021 model previously (months ago) and are contemplating btw the 2 then I’ll say negligible differences spec wise for norm streaming usage. But since you have just bought it then, I say do what’s in your power n convenience to get the 2022 version where possible.

I have been checking since the announcement. No idea why there’s a huge delay in the availability in Singapore.

Once I saw it can be added to cart, I check out right away. Bought the one with the ethernet input.

First time owning the Apple TV, reason for the purchase is to replace the Singtel TV (contract ending this month).

It’s $239 with ethernet input for the 2022 Apple TV 4K and it’s 128GB. During 11.11, I almost purchased the previous gen. Totally feel your frustration on the delay in availability of the latest gen.

it's my first ever Apple TV so i think it's still not a big difference since i'm not coming from any previous model. and i use ethernet and streaming from my NAS so the capacity won't be a big difference for me.

1) You can download additional apps, not just the ones that come preloaded on your smart TV. So that means access to other streaming apps such as Nehula or Curiosity Stream.

2) Access to Apple-only software like arcade games, photos, podcast, airplay mirroring, even Apple Music. For example, I can take photos or videos at work and play them directly from the Apple TV courtesy of iCloud Photo Library.

3) Supposedly better privacy. Smart TVs are notorious for tracking your usage activity so the manufacturers can then resell them at a profit. Apple presumably will not do this.

4) Better performance overall due to more ram and speed.

I have ordered the 64 gb version. Don’t use Ethernet and doubt I will need the added storage space either.
